Living Without's Favorite Books: Simple Shortcuts

After author Jennifer Fugo was diagnosed with sensitivities to gluten, casein, eggs and other foods, she got sticker shock every time she went to the grocery store. Then her husband lost his job, reducing the family to living just above the poverty line. All this prompted Fugo to pen The Savvy Gluten-Free Shopper: How to Eat Healthy Without Breaking the Bank (Ignite Press). With an emphasis on healthy foods, she shares her hard-won lessons—tips on meal planning, stocking a gluten-free pantry, shopping wisely and reducing food waste, as well as recipes (make your own almond milk, whip up a quick soup). This book is for all who want to live well—and well within budget—on a special diet.
